"We Speak in Many Tongues" This piece captures the exchange of identity, culture, and story. The figures—cloaked in ancestral garments and shadowed in resilience—stand as living archives. The handwritten script flowing across their bodies symbolizes language as both spoken and unspoken: oral tradition, maternal wisdom, and ancestral echoes.
The stamp and postal motif suggest the enduring journey of African voices across time and borders. Language transcends words—it becomes presence, expression, and legacy.
African Proverb: "When the roots are deep, there is no reason to fear the wind."
This artwork reminds us that our many tongues are not signs of confusion, but of richness—proof that we belong to a lineage too vast to be contained in a single voice.
